RE: RC-50 Feedback Issue -- Software Fix?

Hi,
The RC-50 doesn't have 0-100% feedback control like on delay units.
Workaround: you can send the output of a loop (phrase) to the sub-outs. If
you link these with a cable to the aux-in (also stereo) then you have the
ability to control feedback with the aux input level knob. 

Example setup
-------------
Phrase 1 => output=SUB, set aux knob to 1/4, overdub mode=replace
Phrase 2 => output=MAIN
Phrase 3 => output=MAIN

However, the aux-in level can't be controlled with an expression pedal. A
workaround for this could be to insert a stereo volume control pedal like
the Boss FV-50. Despite of these missing features, I can say the FC-50 is a
very good and reliable looper for it's price.

Subject: RC-50 Feedback Issue -- Software Fix?


I have one more question about the RC-50 if I may.

I'm reading through the archives about the lack of feedback control on 
the RC-50 being a big drawback, and I've read through Buzap's solution 
to the problem.

I am wondering if this is something that Boss can address in a future 
software upgrade, or would they have to issue a new unit?  I obviously 
have no expertise in this realm, but it seems that many of you do.

Thanks for you time.

Enjoy the day.
